Alienware Area-51 m15x

[mdristy]

Is anyone using Pro/E on the Alienware Area-51 m15x ?


If so, does it runwell onit?


Apparently, this is about the fastest 15" laptop, and possibly the fastest of any laptop, in existence, but it is not officially certified or supported by PTC.


How big of a deal is it to not use a certified computer?


Thanks.

If everything runs fine its not a problem. If you have any problem and call PTC tech support they won't be able to help as it is not a certified computer.
